Domestic and family violence in pregnancy: A culturally friendly resource (video)

Domestic and family violence is when a person like a partner or family member uses power and control to dominate or hurt you.

It can happen in many forms, like physical harm, insults, tracking your movements, breaking your things, or cutting you off from your friends.
